    nah fuck that, the episode you’re talking about is where they lost me.

    “There’s no ethical consumption under capitalism… therefore we’re going to rewrite the rules of the cosmos to give you a pass for it, and now you’re not obliged to fight it any more. You can go back to being happy little consumers now, all your guilt is absolved. Fremulon. NBCUniversal, a Comcast company.”

      I’m not talking about a specific episode—I’m way too ADHD for that—rather the message of the show in general. So knock it off with the strawman argument.

      Reread my reply to the other person, and you’ll understand the point I’m trying to make. Capitalism makes it impossible to be a perfect person, so until the system changes, do the best you can in the meantime.
